EPI LP Standard Plus Pro Pot Shaft Size

[Ecurb G]

Hello,

 

Brand new member of this forum.  Have owned many Les Paul guitars - Never had an Epi one - but, I've had a couple of Epi Les Paul basses and a really nice Sheraton.

Just purchased an Epi LP Standard PlusPRO in Blood Orange.  Quite impressed with the quality of this guitar.  Love it.

I contacted Epiphone 3 times over the last 3 weeks since I bought it with this question and have yet to get a response.

I put chrome dome knobs on all of my guitars - I just like them better.

Trying to buy the knobs from StewMac.com - To do that, I have to know whether it is a 1/4" shaft or a 6mm shaft on the volume and tone pots.

I'm not confident that I can measure that closely to know the difference.  I'm 64 and my eyes are starting to go.  I've looked at all that I can find on-line to get the answer with no luck.

Hoping that switching the knobs isn't a no-no in this group...  

Thanks in advance for any help that I receive.

Welcome to the group Ecurb.

Without your guitar in hand I can only guess. And I would guess 6mm. MOST Epiphones use that size. I think there are a few that get US electronics but most will come stock with metric.

Good luck.

Slip a 1/4" socket or wrench over the shaft.  If it is a loose fit, you most likely have the metric pots.
